Kansas lawmakers are working to pass legislation that would establish a sports authority to oversee a proposed stadium for the Kansas City Chiefs. The legislation, House Bill 2466, proposes the creation of an 11-person board to oversee the project and includes representatives from the Chiefs organization, the mayors of Kansas City, Kansas, and Olathe. The bill has faced delays despite initially being described as a straightforward proposal.

The proposed legislation also includes an extension of the STAR bonds program used to pay for the proposed stadium project.
